The BCG is an agreement between a lender and GHEAC which permits the lender to disburse Stafford and PLUS loans prior to the lender submitting data to GHEAC. Once the lender submits the data, GHEAC will review the loan data submitted by the lender, including confirming the school’s eligibility, checking the borrower’s aggregate limits and determining if the borrower has a previous default.
Both the lender and school most recent cohort default rate must be equal or less than 10%.
